SunPy at TESS Meeting

[Steven Christe]

Is anyone submitting a SunPy abstract to the TESS meeting. I know this is last minute as abstracts are due in last than 5 hours…

Also any interest in getting together at the meeting to discuss SunPy?

Do you mean a general SunPy poster?  I could submit an abstract if you like.  I need to know the authors though.

[Steven Christe]

Yes

I can throw one in.  Send me an author list.

Hi,
We should definitely have a SunPy meeting at TESS, especially if we
get the 0.6 release out as planned.

I’ve already put in my max of two presentations. Anyone have a spare slot?

[Steven Christe]

Are you definitely coming Dan?

Hi guys,

I just submitted the title and abstract below for TESS.  Let me know of any comments and I'll take them into account for the poster itself.  I used the same author list and affiliations as the SunPy poster for last year's SPD.  Let me know if they need changing.

Steve, yes, as of this afternoon I am coming :)

I think a SunPy meeting is definitely a good idea.  I'll be there, especially is there is beer and nachos after again ;)

Cheers,
Dan

Sunpy: Solar Physics in Python

SunPy is a community-developed open-source software library for solar physics.  It is written in Python, a free, cross-platform, general-purpose, high-level programming language which is being increasingly adopted throughout the scientific community as well as further afield.  This has resulted in a wide array of software packages useful for scientific computing, from numerical computation (NumPy, SciPy, etc.), to machine learning (scifitlearn), to visualization and plotting (matplotlib).  SunPy aims to provide required specialised software for analysing solar and heliospheric datasets in Python.  The current version is 0.5 with 0.6 expected to be released later this year.  SunPy provides solar data access through integration with the Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO), the Heliophysics Event Knowledgebase (HEK), and the HELiophysics Integrated Observatory (HELIO) webservices.  It supports common data types from major solar missions such as images (SDO/AIA, STEREO, PROBA2/SWAP etc.), time series (GOES/XRS, SDO/EVE, PROBA2/LYRA), and radio spectra (e-Callisto, STEREO/WAVES).  SunPy’s code base is publicly available through github.com and can be contributed to by anyone.  In this poster we demonstrate SunPy’s functionality and future goals of the project.  We also encourage interested users to become involved in further developing SunPy.

Looks great Dan. Thank you! I'm going to be at TESS too, so we should have a SunPy hack-session  there, and advertise during the meeting to attract more people!

Cheers,
